Well then there will be people complaining about the price and wondering why they just didn't do the inner face for half the price.

These guys with their stuff that's close to awesome but off in one way or another. Make something that hasn't been done or isn't being done and get back to me. Their Protecter head is hardly any different and this is just a moot point to me. Why bother?

I ignore it because it looks silly to me in place of the Scyther face. ;) I think the one it comes with is great. My add-ons don't need add-ons. I think these guys are the joke of the third party business model.

Dr Wu if you want to make some items that will be big sellers try these instead:

1. New shoulder cannon for classics Hound that holds and points up.

2. Vector Sigma (Botcon version is too hard to find and expensive)

3. Visor or head with visor for the Upcoming TFC Hercules.

4. Mace or Ball and Chain weapons for Junkions

5. Cartoon accurate guns for classics Ironhide and Ratchet.


Im all for the new original Protector face if the price is right. But I think these ideas will help you make more money than Metroplex eyes and a Fu Manchu Protector.

I would definitely go for a new shoulder cannon for Hound.

I think new weapons for Ironhide/Ratchet would be difficult considering their hands are pretty much useless.

The hands are on a ball joint. Would newly molded hands that can hold weapons affect the transformation ?

I'm not sure bc I don't know how much clearance is needed for the transformation. I know the hands are folded up flush against the insides of the wrist but, once again, I don't know how much clearance there is to spare.
